Ok, then explain how it factors.


In the case of SC and Clemson, they just played, so ticket sales would suffer if they were paired again. TV viewership could also be affected.

In the case of UGA and Clemson, the schools wouldn't be very interested in the matchup, so they'll lobby against it. This is a much more complicated process than the bowls simply going down the list and taking turns picking.

They will actually decline the invite and negotiate with another bowl

They can lobby all they want. If Baylor holds on and beats OSU, it will be Texas to the Cotton Bowl. The Cotton Bowl would be 10x more excited about a LSU/Texas matchup than Georgia/Texas matchup.
